True, but Poor Richard would.
Isn't more jobs per megawatt-hour a fail for solar.
Ok, go build me 2809 square miles worth of heliostat reflectors smarty pants. The problem with solar power in not it's abundence. It's how diffuse it is. People are small and can only do somuch work to get this energy. After a while it makes sense just to dig coal not that there aren't better alternatives.
You also must consider how many lifetimes worth of effort are wasted per twh. Some renewable systems consume many man hours and just don't produce the energy compared to other systems. How many lifetimes are spent building and maintaining a million windmills compared to a nice compact plant with a powerful and efficient steam turbine.
